MitoCORE provides a source of vitamins and minerals to support biological functions that play a key role in the maintenance of good health and to help maintain immune function. Based on peer-reviewed, double-blind research, MitoCORE provides a blend of alpha lipoic acid, N-acetyl cysteine, micronutrients and phytonutrients, including green tea and resveratrol.
Overview
The body’s cells and organ systems depend on an adequate supply of energy to function optimally. The mitochondria, known as the power house of the cell, contain nutrients and enzymes that are important for cellular energy metabolism. Some of these enzymes convert food to usable energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP functions as the key source of energy for all cells. In order to increase mitochondrial output, there must be adequate fuel supply for combustion and abundant antioxidants to scavenge free radical by-products. Preserving our energy reserves and increasing energy output is a critical part of maintaining optimal health.
There are many things that can drain our energy reserves. Lack of sleep, too much stress, poor nutrition and prescription medications can draw on our energy reserves, using them up faster than they can be replenished. Even the vital biologic systems we rely on to maintain health can create an energy deficit that needs to be restored.
MitoCORE is formulated, based on published research, to boost mitochondrial reserves and jumpstart cellular energy production.1
N-Acetyl Cysteine
N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) is an antioxidant that scavenges free radicals. NAC has been shown to increase production of glutathione, an important antioxidant found in the body.2
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is an antioxidant and also plays a synergistic
role in recharging other antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin
E, CoQ10 and glutathione. Oxidative stress may cause damage to
DNA, RNA, proteins, mitochondrial membranes and lipids, and
can contribute to the functional decline of mitochondria, cells
and tissues.
Resveratrol
Resveratrol is a polyphenol molecule found in many plant species, including grapes and cranberries, and is found in high concentrations in wine. Polyphenols act as antioxidants that protect plants from damage that can be caused by bacteria, fungi and radiation.
Green Tea (EGCG)
Green tea polyphenols have demonstrated significant antioxidant-supporting properties.6 The hydroxyl group of green tea polyphenols supports antioxidant activity by forming complexes with free radicals and neutralizing them, minimizing oxidative damage throughout the body.
The Micronutrient “Backbone”
To increase cellular energy production efficiently, optimal levels of critical nutrients and enzyme cofactors must be achieved. MitoCORE is an energy-providing multivitamin with an optimized backbone of vitamins and minerals necessary for increasing energy output and meeting daily nutritional needs.
